The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world……………

“The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world’…. The saying goes true. It’s the hands of the mother which rocks the baby’s cradle. She carries the baby in her womb for nine months bearing all the pain and peril. Here the mother is not selfish. She feels the pain to be sweet, as she has an incompatible love for the innocent one growing inside. And when it comes out she does everything to that child. She helps in various ways and gives the child good disciple and moral.

She creates a good citizen by teaching the values of life and the child grows out with a greater personality. The child’s achievements in life and his role as a human being makes him the ruler of the world and here is the hands that had rocked the cradle rules the world through the child.

But………..What if the hands that rocked the cradle become selfish? How is it possible for a mother to be selfish? Yes it’s possible for some. They struggle hard and bring up the child in the world, where they expect things in return form the child when he or she grows into a complete adult. She was so domineering and desirous of the child, that every second the seed of selfishness was emergent in her. Her possessiveness has curved her into selfishness without her being aware of it. She becomes so egotistical that she cannot share the child’s love or his material belongings with other person. Here as a mother she is so possessive that she can’t accept another person to love her child and the child to share his/her love. She becomes blind with selfishness that she starts torturing the other woman in her son’s life. She doesn’t take the concept that the other woman in her sons life is also deeply in love with her. Child who guides and stands for him in his happiness and sorrow; who is only a symbol of sacrifice. Here the child starts suffering between the two women. If he is a genuine person he takes the side of the truth, but if he is not genuine he just listens to the mother and follows her guidelines through the mother may be wrong. Here ultimately the mother is making the child a sinner. So the saying “The hand that rocks the cradle will destroy the world’ by creating sinners in the world. It’s the call for the mother and a humble request ---- never ever make your child a sinner for you will be cursed by the people and a day will arise when your own blood will curse you for making him so bad a sinner. Awake and arise O mothers, don’t create sinner in the world, give great heroes to the world. You will be remembered forever.
